So, if you hadn’t noticed, the Ohio State men’s basketball team did not play a game on Saturday. They had been scheduled to take on the Nebraska Cornhuskers, but due to an outbreak of Covid-19 amongst the Huskers, the game was officially postponed. The Big Ten will look to reschedule the contest, but given that there is only roughly a month and a half left in the regular season, there is no guarantee that both teams will have the availability to squeeze it in.
Of course, this comes at a particularly difficult time for the Buckeyes as they were just starting to get their legs underneath them following a three-week, holiday-spanning Covid pause of their own.
